SUMMARY: Meteorologist Elizabeth Gardner reports a cold morning, with temperatures in the upper 30s to mid-40s, significantly colder than the previous day. However, a mild afternoon is expected with highs of 70°F in Raleigh, 69°F in Durham, and 72°F in Fayetteville. Overnight lows will drop to the mid-40s, with some areas near the Virginia line dipping into the upper 30s. Temperatures remain below normal but will rise slightly over the weekend, hitting the mid to upper 70s. A cold front arrives Monday, leading to a sharp drop in temperatures next week, with highs around 63°F by Tuesday.

Grab those jackets in the morning, we’ll have another chilly start ahead of a beautiful Friday. Temperatures dipped into the 40s Thursday night and are making for a cold Friday morning, the coldest we’ve seen since April! It’s anywhere from 10-to-15 degrees colder than Thursday morning. Raleigh and Durham were at 44 degrees at 6 a.m. There will be a frost advisory overnight in the high country and into the morning, with some areas seeing lows as low as 34 degrees.

“Many folks are still without power and are heading into the coldest night of the season,” WRAL meteorologist Mike Maze said.

By the afternoon, it’ll be pleasant with a high around 70 degrees and lots of sun. It’s great weather for tailgating if you’re headed to the Carolina Hurricanes’ season opener at Lenovo Center. We’ll see some nice afternoons over the next few days. This week, we’ve experienced a roller coaster of temperatures, fluctuating between the 60s and 70s, due to a cold front moving through.

WRAL meteorologists said Friday will be the coolest morning we’ve had since April 23. Morning temperatures on Friday and Saturday will drop into the 40s, but afternoons will be sunny and mild.
